History

The construction of Hotel Pattee started in 1912, opening its doors in 1913.

Dining

Inside the dining room of the hotel is the Pattee Café. The restaurant's blend of upscale comfort food and flavor filled with personality is guaranteed to please.

Within the Pattee Café are 3 distinct dining areas which aim to take you back to the era when the train was king.

The Arrow Room, named for a Milwaukee passenger train, is a recreation of an early 20th Century railroad dining car, complete with coffered ceiling, wood paneling, and murals showing the countryside near Perry by Bouton artist Dennis Adams.

The Challenger and Hiawatha Rooms, also named for Milwaukee trains, are designed in the Arts and Crafts style frequently found in depot restaurants and railroad hotel dining rooms.

The Challenger Room is topped with murals of Perry’s railroad past by Iowa artist Doug Shelton. Landscapes in the Hiawatha Room by Iowa artist John Preston remind you of the panorama passengers viewed from the train that was Queen of the Rails.

Tour the art available in the Pattee Café, during your next stops for breakfast, lunch, and dinner!

Art

Sink into the soft leather cushions of the sofas and chairs. Enjoy the Persian rugs, terra cotta tile floor, and replicas of the original chandeliers as well as the stenciling that decorated the lobby’s first walls.

Run your hand along the staircase handrail that has been restored, and step onto the original marble treads, restored for another century of use.

Experience the grand history of the Hotel Pattee and explore our vast collection of artwork on display.
